the slim version doesn't fit on plate 223x223 #41

Closed ronki2304 closed 4 years ago

ronki2304 commented 4 years ago

Hello I tried to print the slim version

but body_top_slim.stl doesn't fit

I used an ultimaker 2 which have a plate of 223*223mm

thias15 commented 4 years ago

Did you rotate it by 45 degrees? It seems other were able to print it successfully. See PR#2

ronki2304 commented 4 years ago

Yes I have rotated it

the bottom filled perfectely but not the top

I see your PR, I don't know what is the difference, but the model doesn't fit on cura

thias15 commented 4 years ago

In the bottom left, the dimensions show as 223x223. Is there maybe some setting in Cura?

thias15 commented 4 years ago

Any luck?

ronki2304 commented 4 years ago

Hello sorry for my late answer,

what do you mean by some settings ???? those dimensions are the piece one on the build plate

thias15 commented 4 years ago

Well, you have an ultimaker 2 which as a build plate of 223x223. The model is also 223x223, so it should fit. So you probably have some setting enabled which prevents you from using the complete build area.

Have you selected build plate adhesion with a brim or a skirt? This will increase the overall size of your print. To disable it, set Build Plate Adhesion Type to "None".

Other settings that are probably not necessary, but may help to fit the model:

Disable the second extruder
Disable prime blob (under build plate adhesion)

ronki2304 commented 4 years ago

Hello, the build plate adhesion is already set to off and I don't have a second extruder,

i tried to change the g-code flavor but I don't see any change. i don't which setup has been made by @katnoria in PR#2

thias15 commented 4 years ago

@ronki2304 Please try https://github.com/intel-isl/OpenBot/blob/develop/body/slim_body/slim_body_top.stl from the development branch. If this does not work, checkout the glueable model.

OK it works thank you very much
